Cattle

Cattle

that was

no way

to die

haunted by

that was

no way

to die

those dying days

that led to death

saved you

from the suffering

I would

so many hard things

of this world

experienced and observed

and often thought

just why

why does it have to be

this hard

why did it have to be that hard

isn’t there another way

has to be

… a better way

and I remember what you said to me

on a sunny-blue sky-bird breeze-day

and how I didn’t understand

how you could say such a thing

such a terrible thing

on that sunny-blue sky-bird breeze-day

I didn’t understand
